i find .net totally useless. the only software i ever use that needs it is turbotax and that's only one week out of the year, if that. i just happen to like turbotax, what can i say. after my tax filing is done this bloatware gets uninstalled pronto. any other software i might try to install that requires .net gets appropriately cancelled. there's plenty of other software alternatives out there that don't require this mess being on your system, including all the endless security updates/service packs that come with it.update: i also forgot that starting with version 4, ms .net starts an ngen service automatically that slows down pc boot time considerably, particularly your lan connection. very frustrating. yes, it can be disabled in services, however, with each new update to .net 4.x(which seems to come every couple of months), the service gets set to automatic again. that's even more frustrating.@zoroasteri've come across that too... a software installer that was very, very small in size but was wanting to install that .net behemoth for it to work. that's just totally ridiculous.

i run xp and have 100% no problems and 100% perfect installability and usability. however with no uninstaller the rank goes down.
